Ok. I like the idea of the severum. My LFS has a beautiful green, and i could find a medium sized gold. Also, just as a side-note, ive secured a smaller tank that is filtered and stuff to either grow out fish or keep them in. If i find a differnt grouping of fish i like the firemouths can live...

@Rivers2k- I understand that the environments are completely different. I believe i mentioned that in the original post. However, i am constantly recommended to overstock the tank by people who have 20+ years in the hobby, unlike me who has about 2, and they also know the difference between...

Ok... Idk if a thread can be "ended" but I've realized that big fish are cool, but considering i can only have one maybe two its not for me... If only i was rich enough to buy bigger... I posted a new thread about what i would like to do to hopefully allow me more fish. Thanks!! Sent from a...

So I posted a thread that i have a 75 gallon, its has two HOB filters rated for the 75 as well as a canister filter that does about 500 GPH. It has heating and... BUBBLES! Im prepared to do heavy water changes. I can promise once a week if need be and i may not be able to do more than that...

Ya... Ive not updated the thread on my decisions but thise three as well as snypspilum are out... And oscars are in!! Any suggestions? Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

Upon doing more research i decided that a snypspilum isn't the fish for me. What i really want to do is have a Midas with something else. If that isn't possible, then any recommendations for 2 larger fish in the 75 will work. Also a snyodontis will be in there as a clean-up crew Thanks...

Also, the tank comes with a bunch of fish... Silver arowana, peocock bass, zig-zag eel, tire track eel, shovel-nose catfish, and 3 bichirs. So if you think what I'm asking is ridiculous look at what this person had in there... ? I WILL be selling everyone of them to a good LFS that will take...

So i posted a thread a few dats ago about a 55 gallon tank i was in the process of buying. It was found on craigslist and it was a great deal. I had to wait a while longer than expected because the guy was getting married. Then, when we were preparing to go get it tomorrow (Friday) the guy said...

Look at its teeth?!!! That would hurt to get bitten by!!!! Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

Ok Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

So gold and red severums are a bigger variety? Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

Do some of them get bigger? (Just in case i see a different kind so i know if its an option or not) could i do more than one?) websites give lots of different data on the sizes of severums Its not exactly what i was looking for... A bit peaceful but a cool fish Sent from a cave in the...

Ok i could just do a pair. Once they get bigger and can see their personalith i might add one more fish.... You mentioned a severum, ive been told by many people and website that they grow too big? Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

I like firemouths I dont like hondurans or rainbows Ive come actoss a deal for a pair of firemouths... If i was to buy those would they have to be alone, or could they have companions? Any other ideas??? Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

Ok so any ideas for a smaller grouping? Ive been thinking of one of the smaller types of pike cichlids, and a pair of firemouths... Or i might just do an oscar... They get a bit big but they will work i guess, although i would prefer a grouping of somewhat smaller cichlids. Ideas?? Sent from a...

Ok ADF it is, thanks!! Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

I would like to say that you helped me... Truth be told i have no idea what those terms mean... Im just sticking to my freshwater tanks until have some real income... Because after i save some )so i can move out so i when I'm 18 so i don't have to have tanks lining the walls of my bedroom and...

Ive seen a video of someone who had 2 full grown albino oscars in a big tank. I don't know any specifics except that tank was at least a 200+ gallon and had a lot of rockwork... But the huge oscars swimming along at the top with the colorful africans down below was amazing!!! Sent from a cave...

Ya. As a "child" i still don't have a full time job, which is the only reason i don't do something with saltwater... The freswater tanks are expensiveenough! And the money i make in the summer isn't even to support more pets than i have much less spend a zillion dollars on saltwater... If i...

To be honest, the 10 gallon is the least important to me in my book. I feed them and change the water and such, but the water conditions are, im sure, a bit less than ideal. In my opinion, they are a bit tougher than people make them out to be... However they are definitely not a super tough...

Ya its larvae of something or other... Im not knowledable about this att all... Could it be dragonfly? Is that even possible....? Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

I havent even noticed it in WC time!! I might just plop them in with the cichlids in the 55 when i get it set up, if they dont ever school.. Then i would know that they wouldnt have diseases if they got eaten.. Hehe Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a sand dune.

It does help. I have a lot of extra filter on it, willing to do a bit of extra water changes if i need to... Would the clawed frog work? Thats for the name btw... I want add about 4 ADF and im considering a betta to add onto that after the frogs settle... Would the clawed frog work out? Or too...

Ive read that a single of either a salvini or a firemouth can live its life in a 29, providing its either alone or only with bottom feeders/algae eaters... A salvini with the smaller species of pictus (only one or 2) would be nice and colorful... Although tha salvini might hide a bit... Sent...

Oh. I wasnt aware of that... I just assumed schooling fish school! Is there a way i could get that affect of them shoaling without putting them in harms way? Or should i just leave it be?? I really just bought them because i wanted a shoaling fish... Sent from a cave in the eastward side o a...
